WWII Nurse

I did a little research on this photo. According to google, the lady’s uniform is either Army Nurse Corp (ANC) or Women’s Army Corp (WAC). The uniform is from the WWII era or early 1940s. If anyone could verify this, I would appreciate it.

She is standing on the dock of a ship. Boat Dock Fire Sta. No. 2 is clearly visible in the background. Most likely the ship was a troop transport or a hospital ship.

Family Posing

I think this image is an extended family posing after a dinner or church. I don’t have any further information on the picture.

From the clothing and type of photo, I am placing the time around the mid-1930s.

Brothers–August 1943

This image is from another estate sale lot. In my opinion, the two young men look like brothers. I am basing this assumption on their facial features.

The photo does not contain any names. But the back is stamped with the Brown Photo Service, Minneapolis, Minnesota logo with the date August 28, 1943.

Either the young man in uniform is on leave or he has just joined the service. The date is only the processing date of the image.

I wonder if he returned home? The date corresponds with WWII.

Until next time…peace.

A Lady and Her Duck

I do not have information on the photo. The image is from a batch of photos that I purchased at an estate sale. I actually have numerous pictures of her and her family.

I am placing the image around the late 1940s. The chair looks old. Perhaps, the chair is located in a garden. She was taking a rest and talking to her duck.

Vintage Christmas Photos – Day 2 – Opening Gifts

This Christmas photo did not have any identifying marks. I place the photo around the late 1930s to early 1940s.

The lady is well-dressed for her Christmas celebration. I wonder what was in the box. I am guessing, she is a grandmother or great-grandmother to the host.

I love the Christmas cards in the background and the old-fashioned tree.

What do you think?

Merry Christmas!

Ski Time

Can you believe it’s November 1st already? Soon, the holidays will be here. And, of course, since I am in Michigan, there will be snow.

This snow photo is from an estate lot. I do not have any information. I am placing the photo in the late 1940s or early 1950s. My guess is based on his style of clothes and the wooden skis.

Exploring a 1920s Wedding Photo from Bay City, MI

Here’s another photo that I am placing around the 1920s. I am assuming the couple just got married. And, they are now posing for their first photo as man and wife.

I believe this is a studio photo but I guess the location could be someone’s home.

The only identifying mark on the photo is the studio stamp. The photo was taking by Gorzycki in Bay City, Michigan. I think the other part reads: 2249 E. Grant Sts.
